Former Vice President Al Gore
Invites Citizens Everywhere to Participate in a Google+
Conversation About Combating the Climate Crisis on June
11th at 2PM EST / 11AM PST.
Participant Media,
Paramount Home Media Distribution and Google announced today that former Vice
President Al Gore, chairman of The Climate Reality Project, and
Participant Media Chairman and Founder Jeff Skoll will host a Google+
Conversation on the climate crisis to celebrate the seventh
anniversary of the Academy Award®-winning documentary An Inconvenient
Truth.
In a brief YouTube video released
today, Vice President Gore invited people to join the Science on G+ Community and share ideas to mitigate
climate change. Over the next week Gore and Skoll will engage with
Google+ users on the topic and ultimately will select the five most insightful
Community members to join them in a live Google+ Hangout on Air on June
11th at 2PM EST / 11AM PST.
To celebrate the film’s
seventh anniversary, An Inconvenient Truth is also now
available for 99 cents on Google
Play, allowing a new generation of digital viewers to join the global
dialogue. Participant’s digital network, TakePart.com, will also run a special five-part editorial
series on climate change that will dive deeper into the issue and
its evolution beginning June 10 at
takepart.com/an-inconvenient-truth. As part of the series,
TakePart has also teamed with The Climate Reality Project to recommend
ten climate crisis actions people can take.
To participate in the
Google+ Conversation, join the Science on G+ Community and then tune-in to the final
Hangout on Air (RSVP).
